It mentioned "prohibit IRA accounts from holding naked short option contracts" not short index futures. You're just as likely to take a hit from...
Just got this in my email a few minutes ago:
While I will withhold final judgement until I get the final explanation it looks pretty bad right now. If it had to happen so be it but why even...
This is what I expect from a government agency not a broker.
I'm hoping to get some kind of update from IB in the next day or so. It would be a real shame to have to close accounts I've held for years...

I can only guess it involves cases of people either selling or letting others use their access to market data. I prefer to run mine from in a VM...
First, I realize tax advice on a public forum is often worth less than what you pay for it. That said, we had a large gain in 2010 in futures...
